There has been a lot of scuttle butt around which wonders whether Barack Obama was ever a Muslim. Apparently, some childhood friends walked with him to the mosque on Fridays. Apparently, even when he attended the parochial school, he was registered as a Muslim as so many others were as well. Apparently, there is more than a question about whether Barack was ever a semi-practicing Muslim. What's the big deal? We live in an enlightened multi-cultural nation which respects the individual and his freedom to make choices. The very foundation of our culture is freedom of religion and out government is consitutionally required to seperate church and state. Americans, other than those living in DC, are all fairly well read, intellectually sound, culturally varied, etc. Democrats are the party of multi-culturalism which embraces all our differences. All those enlightened folks in the party's base should be able to understand a man's religion imposed by his father and freely converted away from. Let's get the facts out. Barack just explain completely your religious upbringing and we'll deal with it. There's nothing wrong with a presidential candidate who was once a Muslim. We are an enlightened lot. That won't change the outcome of the primary or ultimate election.
Bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
